Cadillac needs to step their game up on interior quality and design. Lincoln is pretty much knocking it out of the park with their new interior design. Do yourself a favor and just go sit in a Continental or Navigator. They’re quite special.

FACT: You can’t steer a car without a steering wheel.

Before you say this, you really should stop by your local junkyard and look at the tire selection.

My philosophy is: Instead of buying a cheap, no-name brand tire for cheap, I buy a lightly used (one or two year old) name brand, high-quality tire that’s garnered good reviews from users and that I’ve thoroughly…

I’m not a fan of the two-tone on that Volvo. Just doesn’t seem to work well with the body line.

I’ve never met anyone that owned one that wasn’t completely happy with it.

My vehicles have gone Honda, Honda, BMW (shudder), Toyota, Lexus, Toyota, Ford.  Come to the dark side.

Thanks, BahamaTodd. Patrick George declined my offer 8 months ago to publish my renders. Shame. 

People do buy vehicles based on looks.  The F-150 and Ram look very nice.  The Silverado looks horrible.

I’m old enough to remember when this is what the rear seat of a Ford Ranger looked like. If you were over 95 pounds you were going to be cramped back there. 

Yes, it’s weird how Jalops used to love boxes (station wagons and shooting brakes), but it’s now considered sacrilege if it’s this particular kind of box. I can hardly recognize this place anymore.

I’d love to know what is so awesome about a sedan, aside from the fact that it existed before the CUV/SUV form factor became the new default.   Why the fuck would I want a three box car over a two box car?  WHY?  

The Flex is dying after this year too. She’s an old girl at this point of the lifecycle, but I have to admit I’m bummed to see it go. I’ll pour one out for one of the weirdest family haulers out there. RIP Taurus SHO estate wagon. 

Agreed, they were selling over 300,000 annually for a 2-3 years. That’s not a small number.

“The Ford Fusion never really found footing in the American sedan market...”

You’re used to the Fiesta ST.

Try driving a Camry. Then drive the Fusion (any trim line - not just the sport). It’s like switching from a Chevelle to a Supra. The current Camry is a disaster for performance. The Fusion is nowhere near as light and nimble as the Fiesta ST, but it performs VERY nicely relative to its…

To me it appears to be basically a full blown race car except instead of a plastic body to look like a modern car it is an old metal body. 

I think it’s her complete lack of concern for the guy she just drilled in the face that really caps it.

When i was a youngin and in high school, my friends and I would hit the auto show every winter down at the DC Conv. Center. One year, the car that captured me was the Puegeot Quasar. I see you wrote and little ditty about it long ago. https://jalopnik.com/meet-the-peugeot-quasar-a-group-b-supercar-for-the-roa-169270494…

Cadillac is still the worst at doing this. They’ve teased us for decades with beautiful concepts that they never make. They even used 16 cyl engines in their shenanigans.

I’ve been living in China my whole adult life, and it is hard at times to be a gear head here. Still, I manage to drive an American car and participate in some track days and car shows when they happen. There is a very big difference in car enthusiast culture as well, even though the cars may be the same.
